When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Akuffo Addo: No Certificate, acting like (Abu) in the thief of Baghdad movie; an old man filled with a lot of foolishness, WEE smoker, Cocaine Peddler, Drug President for Drug Barons, Ugly Dwarf litigant, Nation Wrecker sitting on 3million oil rig thievery, his father (Edward Akuffo Addo) traitor and money launder . You have lied too much.... everything you say has been painted to appease people but your demeanour betrays you. You are not honest your voice tone tells us all that you are a big liar. Tell Ghanaians your involvement with drill ship, cocaine and weed, your law school certificate, why you changed your name, who your Dad was working for? Your own achievements apart from being an attorney General and Foreign minister which we all know it was a political gimmick with questions.

Kennedy Agyapong: “Essikafo ammbetem” “ toke b3l3” ,a human replica of his house dogs. He will always eat shit even if cake is offered to him for free. A classic Junky

Agyekum Kuffour and Addo Kuffour: Crime brothers from a typical MATREKO family with no conscience: International womanisers, Kick Back professionals
All we saw in eight years of Kuffour in office was day light robbery of properties and owning them at all cost. He supervised a regime of no shame, penetrated into state reserve lands and forcefully paid peanut for them. Siphoning from state account and redenominated the currency with impunity. They demonstrated arrogance and excess abuse of power. It is unbelievable how Kuffour`s numerous presidential initiatives headed by Allan Kyeremanteng, all ended up in “MATREKO WO” island. None of them prospered just like his mentor Dr. Abrefa Busia

WONTUMI: the “ABODAM ENYIKAN” Lunatic fool, suffering from the poisonous water from “galamsey” the silliest Ashanti who has no aim. The real “MAGA DOG” who bites at shadows

Dr Bawumia: Economic serial liar, thief of Baghdad in the redenomination exercise, economic sycophant with no shame, who will steal from his fathers and share with his friends for no benefits. A disgraced son suffering under the scourges of his fathers ghost

Sir John: A Villager who has had his first experience in the use of WC, Fridge, TV, tad road and wearing of proper sandals (Tuabodom Boy)

Sammy Awuku a Lost hungry goat @ night bleating at any flash of light. Confused person with no balls

KT Hammond Mamaba gyimi gyimi with no conscience, you can tell that his body is 50 years older than his brains. Avum Jullor Eiwwiee. Where is the drill ship balance?

HOPESON ADORYE: The village “KING KONG” who has never experienced technology. He is still living in an illusive world where colours of a product matters more than its content. KWASIA like that. hahahaha

Nkrabea Effah Darteh :”Bankye na Ngo” lawyer with no decency. Dirty Person from a primitive bush where human sacrifice is their religion. Foolish dirty man ( ekurasi yeboa) opportunist politician whose benchmark is his stomach. Take “adom koko bitters laxative” to deflate your idiotic belly to make your brain function well!!! Aboa b3L3.

Obetsebi Lamptey: “Ofui Gyatoo, Magazine Oburoni” No certificates, state bungalow thief, stadium disaster donation thief, dirty occult grand master his father thief, TRAITOR and Bomb Thrower

Wuntumi: The lunatic Galamsey drug addict filled with silly confidence beyond definition.

Akomea: A total liability with no pedigree, Adult Pampas user, Chronic Gay with gross uncontrolled dirty pronouncements.

Minority Leader (Mensa Kyei Bonsu) Peadophile (aweengah,) Kobolo, wee smoker stealing food from the school pantry. Serial liar after Kwamina Bartels

Dr. Akoto-Osei Copy and Paste degree holder. He has no common sense.

URSULA OWUSU: The “bucket mouth” woman with derailed ambition.

Ken Dappah: A church mouse who has seen a Cat.

Gabby Otchere Darko: Akyem walking stick growing dirty mould beard. A chirping owl in Dodowa forest

Mustapha Hammid: A Loyal Donkey , Boys Abr3 !!!

AUTHOR: MARTIN A.B.K. AMIDU....

It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution

The prosecuting team or the Attorney General's department must first ensure that the evidence or facts available to them will reach the standard (beyond reasonable doubt) that will secure conviction when presented in a court of law.

If in their judgement they don't have the evidence that will reach that threshold then they can not go ahead with prosecution and Justice Emile Short should know about that.

Lately Justice Short seems to be playing politics with anything anti government stating from his successor MS Lapmtey or perhaps he is aggrieved for not being invited to take his old job.

Justice short has simply asked the Attorney General to explain to the public the reasoning for dropping charges. If fact, some would argue the best way of doing justice to the arrested and now discharged individuals would be to let a court determine their innocence.Nayele has been convicted in the U.K and Ghana needs to show that she acted alone. As things stand, the UK and all Western Governments will be justified in suspecting Grand cover up. They will be equally justified in searching all Ghanaian travelers Diplomats and Diplomatic baggage included. We need to protect our international image as a country. Justice Short should not be a LONE VOICE on this matter.

CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO THE PEOPLE OF GHANA WHY YOU RULED OUT ATO QUARSHIE'S CORRUPT PRACTICES WHEN HE WAS A MINISTER IN RAWLINGS CABINET, WITH A DUBIOUS AND FICTITIOUS CLAIM, HE HAD INHERITED WEALTHY GERMAN IN GERMANY.

YOU SHOULD HAVE PURSUED TO KNOW THE TRUTH, BECAUSE,THE RULE OF LAW IN GERMANY STIPULATES THAT ANY GERMAN OWING A PROPERTY IS BY LAW OBLIGED TO REGISTER IT AT THE LAW COURTS IN GERMANY.

LEGITIMATE CLAIMS AND INHERITANCE ARE LEGALLY BASED ON HAND WRITTEN TESTAMENTS AND ENDORSED NOTARY LAYERS.

HOW DID IT BECOME POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO HAVE BASED YOUR JUDGEMENT IN DISMISSING THE CRIMINAL CHANGES LEVELLED AGAINST ATO QUARSHIE ON FRAUD,STEALING AND MISAPPROPRIATION OF STATE FUNDS:

DID YOU EVER GET A CONFIRMATION OF HIS INHERITANCE PLEA FROM THE FEDERAL COURT OF JUSTICE IN STUTTGART, GERMANY

WHY ARE YOU DEMANDING EXPLAINATION.

DID JUSTICE PREVAIL FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE GOVERNMENT OF GHANA WHEN YOU GAVE THAT IRRATIONAL JUDGEMENT ON ATO QURSHIE'S ILLIGAL ACQUISITION OF PROPERTIES AT THE EXPENSE OF THE TAXPAYERS MONEY IN GHANA

Until there's a level playing field where all play by the same set of rules, peace will continue to elude us in this nation and where there's no peace and stability there's no growth and development. The system is wrong if it does favor law breakers more than it does the law abiding citizens. What it means is that there's no incentive for doing the right thing according to established rules.
If the Attorney General's office has decided to discontinue with this high profile case for lack of prosecution then they owe Ghanaians an explanation; what that broad but vain statement means. On the other hand the silence from the 6 accused persons is deafening. Definitely they have been maligned by the state and their reputation has been dealt an irreparable damage. Why are they also not suing the state for reparations? We live in a country where the only wrongdoers prosecuted are those who are not card bearing members of the ruling party and those who are not well connected. This is never "Yen ara asase ni " but "Won ara asase ni ". The day is soon coming when people from all walks of life and from every nook and cranny will demand fairness and accountability and some people will run and leave their sandals and shoes behind. People have soon forgotten what happened in Rawlings era. If this trend does not change then nothing can stop another people's revolution from taking place. This time it'd be different from the Rawlings "wulu wulu " revolution.
